When your life has evolved from sleeping at 3 AM, to an entirely new vocabulary of verbs (burp, spit up, swaddle, change, sleep) in the wee hours of the day; you find yourself here. Welcome to mommyhood!

NOW HIRING
The household of RockingChair Ramblings is currently searching for a new assistant. Applicants must be willing to work during the hours of 12 AM- 6AM. Job duties include burping baby, changing diapers, rocking and calming baby, and waking mommy to feed. Applicants must be loving, considerate, gentle and responsible and also must love babies. Applicants must have mothering experience, must be at least 26 years of age and have no criminal record. Salary is granted in coos, and cuddles by baby with a chocolate chip cookie stipend.
In all seriousness, I would like to thank my own mom for saving the day many times already. It is incredible how much sleep deprivation can twist your head into knots. I have never before felt such an insatiable craving for sleep as I do as a new mommy. When the little man turns his nocturnal switch into full throttle, Gramma Reindeer is always ready to come to the rescue. Mommy and Daddy get an extra 3 hours of sleep and life is happy again. There is no more valuable gift than grandparents, and we are lucky to have four, wonderful grandparents who cherish baby Isaac.

I am the lucky one!!! Holding Isaac gives me more joy than you could possibly imagine. Added bonus: watching his mommy and daddy be incredibly nurturing, loving dedicated parents to this sweet sweet miracle.
ReplyDeleteIt is an honor and blessing, every time I get to be with sweet little Isaac. Love the Christmas music in the background too! I love you!
